Wen, C. (author), Bertosin, E. (author), Shi, X. (author), Dekker, C. (author), Schmid, Sonja (author)Nanopores are versatile single-molecule sensors offering a simple label-free readout with great sensitivity. We recently introduced the nanopore electro-osmotic trap (NEOtrap) which can trap and sense single unmodified proteins for long times. The trapping is achieved by the electro-osmotic flow (EOF) generated from a DNA-origami sphere...journal article 2022

Yang, Jinxin (author), Shi, Qian (author), Menenti, M. (author), Xie, Yanhua (author), Wu, Zhifeng (author), Xu, Yong (author), Abbas, Sawaid (author)Vegetation is important for urban heat mitigation. The cooling intensity of vegetation is affected by background climate and urban design. How to evaluate vegetation cooling efficiency under different climate conditions is still an issue open to discussion. In this study, a normalized indicator of urban vegetation cooling efficiency (NVCE) is...journal article 2022

Hao, Xiaodi (author), Wang, Xiangyang (author), Shi, Chen (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Wu, Yuanyuan (author)Sludge incineration and seawater desalination are two approaches that can be used in the disposal of waste activated sludge (WAS) and for obtaining fresh water. As resource recovery from wastewater treatment and water purification is a topic of particular interest in these times, “water mining” has become a focus of research, with phosphate/P...journal article 2022

Wüthrich, D. (author), Shi, Rui (author), Chanson, Hubert (author)Breaking bores are commonly observed in a number of natural processes, often associated with the presence of a transient mixture of air and water, with intense recirculation, air bubble entrainment, and splashing. Two-phase flow measurements in such highly unsteady flows cannot be based on long-duration measurements and require novel ensemble...journal article 2022

Guo, Y. (author), Shi, Can (author), Zhao, Chunfa (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author)Crumb rubber (CR) has been proposed to apply in the ballast or sub-ballast layer for ballast degradation mitigation and vibration (noise) reduction. The CR can change the ballast layer stiffness, which can affect the train-track-subgrade dynamic performance and cause travel comfort and safety issues. Towards this, this study aims at...journal article 2022

Yang, Zhengxian (author), Shi, Peng (author), Zhang, Yong (author), Li, Z. (author)Internal curing by superabsorbent polymer (SAP) has been applied in alkali-activated slag (AAS) systems by a few previous studies with the purpose to mitigate the autogenous shrinkage. However, the effects of SAP on other properties of AAS have been rarely studied. In this paper, the workability, strength, permeability, and frost resistance...journal article 2022

Arosquipa Nina, Yvan (author), Shi, Rui (author), Wüthrich, D. (author), Chanson, Hubert (author)On a stepped spillway, the staircase invert profile generates some intense turbulent dissipation during the spill, associated with a significant reduction of kinetic energy, as well as strong self-aeration. The present study focused on the effects of inclined downward steps on the air-water flow properties, flow resistance, and head losses...journal article 2022

Dreef, H. J. (author), Shi, S. (author), Cheng, X. (author), Donkers, M. C.F. (author), Van den Hof, P. M.J. (author)Identifiability of linear dynamic networks requires the presence of a sufficient number of external excitation signals. The problem of allocating a minimal number of external signals for guaranteeing generic network identifiability in the full measurement case has been recently addressed in the literature. Here we will extend that work by...journal article 2022

Shi, P. (author), Billeter, M.J. (author), Eisemann, E. (author)Screen-space ambient occlusion (SSAO) shows high efficiency and is widely used in real-time 3D applications. However, using SSAO algorithms in stereo rendering can lead to inconsistencies due to the differences in the screen-space information captured by the left and right eye. This will affect the perception of the scene and may be a source...journal article 2022
